Prokopowicz, Gerald J., ALL FOR THE REGIMENT: The Army of the Ohio, 1861-1862. NEW copy, hardcover with dust jacket. (University of North Carolina Press, 2001). 280 pages.
~~~ Despite its important role in the early years of the Civil War, the Army of the Ohio remains one of the least studied of all Union commands. With All for the Regiment, Gerald Prokopowicz deftly fills this gap. He offers an engaging history of the Army of the Ohio from its formation in 1861 to its costly triumph at Shiloh and its failure at Perryville in 1862. ~~~ All for the Regiment traces how the amateur soldiers who formed the Army of the Ohio bridged widely varying backgrounds to organize themselves into individual regiments of remarkable strength and cohesion. Successive commanders Robert Anderson, William T. Sherman, and Don Carlos Buell all failed to integrate those regiments into an effective organization, however. The result was a decentralized and elastic army that was easily disrupted and difficult to command -- but also nearly impossible to destroy in combat. ~~~ Exploring the army's behavior at minor engagements such as Rowlett's Station and Logan's Cross Roads, as well as major battles such as Shiloh and Perryville, Prokopowicz shows how its regiment- oriented culture prevented the army from experiencing decisive results -- either complete victory or catastrophic defeat -- on the battlefield. Regimental solidarity was at once the Army of the Ohio's greatest strength, he argues, and its most dangerous vulnerability. ~~~ More than a traditional campaign narrative, the book uses the Army of the Ohio's example to advance an innovative argument regarding battlefield performance in the Civil War. How an army fared in battle was primarily determined not by the skill of its commander or the technological sophistication of its weapons, Prokopowicz says, but by the way in which it was recruited and organized.
~~~ "An insightful and incisive analysis of Civil War military culture, of the disorganization of Civil War armies -— the key to their sloppy, indecisive, and deadly performances. This is an excellent anti-romance, original and unusual in approach and refreshingly honest." ~~Michael Fellman.
~~~ "This book fills an important niche in the history of Civil War armies. Lucid and lively, All for the Regiment shows how recruitment, training, and combat forged the bonds of comradeship that sustained morale and fighting power." ~~James M. McPherson

DESCRIPTION:In 1860, the state of Ohio had a total population of over 2.3 million people, of which 679,000 were of military age. For the war, the Buckeye state raised 198 infantry regiments, 13 cavalry regiments, 3 cavalry battalions, 1 light artillery regiment, and 25 light artillery batteries. Ohio regiments fought in all theaters and distinguished themselves greatly. 35,475 Ohioans died during the war, of which 11,588 were killed or mortally wounded in combat. 24 Ohio Infantry regiments are listed in William F. Fox's "300 Fighting Regiments" found in Regimental Losses of the American Civil War. The only fighting during the war on Ohio soil occurred during John Hunt Morgan's cavalry raid in 1863. Among the generals born, raised or residing in Ohio before the war, were Ulysses S. Grant, William T. Sherman, Philip H. Sheridan, Don Carlos Buell, George Armstrong Custer, James A. Garfield, Alexander McD. McCook, William S. Rosecrans, Godfrey Weitzel, Jacob D. Cox, George B. McClellan, and several dozen others. After the war, 5 Civil War veterans from Ohio were elected president, including Ulysses S. Grant, Rutherford B. Hayes, James A. Garfield, Benjamin Harrison, and William McKinley.
